View Journal Citation Metrics such as Impact Factor, Eigenfactor Score™ and Article Influence Score™ where applicable.
Each year, Journal Citation Reports® (JCR) from Thomson Reuters examines the influence and impact of scholarly research journals. JCR reveals the relationship between citing and cited journals, offering a systematic, objective means to evaluate the world’s leading journals.
The values displayed for the Journal Citation Metrics fields in IEEE Xplore are based on the 2011 Thomson Reuters Journal Citation Report (JCR), released in June 2012.
Impact Factor: Impact Factor is the average number of times articles from a journal published in the past two years have been cited in the JCR year. The Impact Factor is a so-called popularity measure which relies on the crude number of citations, each of them counting the same independently of the quality of the source.
Eigenfactor™Score takes into account the number of times articles from a journal published in the last five years have been cited in the JCR year while also considering which journals have contributed these citations. Since citations are in this case weighted dependently on the source, The Eigenfactor Score belongs to the class of so-called prestige measures. The Eigenfactor Score represents the probability of reading a specific journal in the entire collection and therefore high-scoring journals have a greater influence in the scientific community.
Article Influence™Score is also a prestige measure and has all the features of the Eigenfactor Score, with an additional normalization to the number of published papers. Hence it can be considered the average influence of a journal's articles over the first five years after publication.
